Virgin Mobile FreeFest 2009!

On Sunday August 30, Merriweather Post Pavilion was home to the Virgin Mobile FreeFest, a full-day full of rock bands, hip hop groups and DJs. And this time, in a year when many are down on their luck financially, the event was free! The festival, featuring headliners Blink-182 and Weezer, sold out quickly and an estimated 35,000 were in attendance.

Check out our exclusive galleries of the bands, the audience and much more!
